These monkeys are not actually the first primat

2、es(靈長類) to be cloned. Another one named Tetra was produced in the late 1990s by embryo(胚胎) splitting, the division of an early－stage embryo into two or four separate cells to make clones. By contrast, they were each made by replacing an egg cell nucleus(細(xì)胞核) with DNA from a differentiated body cell.

3、 This Dolly method, known as somatic cell nuclear transfer(SCNT), can create more clones and allows researchers greater control over the edits they make to the DNA. Success came from adopting several new techniques. These included a new type of microscopy to better view the cells during handling or

4、 using several materials that encourage cell reprogramming, which hadn't been tried before on primates. Still, the research process proved difficult, and many attempts by the team failed. Just two healthy baby monkeys born from more than 60 tested mothers. This leads to many researchers' pouring col

5、d water on the idea that the team's results bring scientists closer to cloning humans. They thought this work is not a stepping stone to establishing methods for obtaining live born human clones. Instead, this clearly remains a very foolish thing to attempt, it would be far too inefficient, far too

6、unsafe, and it is also pointless. But the scientists involved emphasize that this is not their goal. There is now no barrier for cloning primate species. Thus cloning humans is closer to reality. However, their research purpose is entirely for producing non－h(huán)uman primate models for human diseases;

7、they absolutely have no intention, and the society will not permit this work to be extended to humans. Despite limitations, they treat this breakthrough as a novel model system for scientists studying human biology and disease. 語篇導(dǎo)讀　中國科學(xué)家利用SCNT技術(shù)克隆出了兩只猴子，文章介紹了相關(guān)信息并討論了這種克隆實驗的影響。 1．What do we know a

D．It produced two cloned monkeys with different genes. 解析　B　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句可知，SCNT可以幫助研究者在編輯DNA時更加有效控制，即可能有助于編輯DNA，故選B項。 2．Wha

9、t does the author mean by saying “pouring cold water on the idea” in Paragraph 2? A．Keeping a hot topic of it. B．Having a low opinion of it. C．Attaching no importance to it. D．Adding supportive evidence to it. 解析　B　詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線處上一句可知，研究的過程比較困難，多次嘗試均以失敗告終，所以許多科學(xué)家對這一實驗理念并不看好。have a low opinion of

But while it's long been believed that endorphins(

13、內(nèi)啡呔)—chemicals in the body that cause happiness—are behind the so－called “runner's high”， a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew. According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals called

14、 endocannabinoids(內(nèi)源性大麻素) may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling. To test this theory, the scientists turned to mice. Both mice and humans release high levels of endorphins and endocannabinoids after exercise, along with many other chemicals. After exercising on running wheels

15、, the mice seemed happy and relaxed and displayed no signs of anxiety. But after being given a drug to block their endorphins they changed. However, when their endocannabinoids were block with a different drug, the runner's high symptoms seemed to fade. “The long－h(huán)eld notion of endorphins being re

16、sponsible for the runner's high is false. Endorphins are effective pain relievers, but only when it comes to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out，” Patrick Lucas Austin wrote on science blog. Similar studies are yet to be carried out on humans, but it's already well known th

The UK's National Health Service even prescribes(開藥方) exercise for patients who are suffering from depression. “Being depressed can leave you feeling low in energy, which might put you off being more active. Regular exercise ca

18、n boost your mood if you have depression, and it's especially useful for people with mild to moderate(中等的) depression，” it wrote on its website. It seems like nothing can beat that feeling we get after a good workout, even if we don't fully understand where it comes from. At least if we're feeling
